Features and Capabilities

Cisco ISE helps IT professionals conquer enterprise mobility challenges and secure the evolving network across the attack continuum. ISE provides you with several capabilities, some of which are listed below.

Centralize and unify network access policy management to provide consistent, secure access to end users, whether they connect to your network over a wired, wireless, or VPN connection.

Gain greater visibility and more accurate device identification. ISE's superior device profiling and zero-day device profile feed service provides updated profiles for the latest devices. Combined, these two features help reduce the number of unknown endpoints (and potential threats) on your network.

Implement software-defined segmentation based on enterprise roles by using Cisco TrustSec technology embedded in existing infrastructure. Use Identity Services Engine to create flexible, role-based access control policies that dynamically segment access without added complexity. Traffic classification is based on endpoint identity, which can enable policy change without network redesign.

Contextual data improves the efficacy of partner solutions and accelerates the identification, mitigation, and remediation of network threats. Additionally, partner solutions, such as Lancope StealthWatch, can execute access policy changes in Identity Services Engine to contain threats and prevent their spread across the network.
